Opening your own treasure box, taking out memories, bringing them to light, dusting them off and looking at them - this is what Doris Dörrie has developed practices of 'creative writing' for, saying that all writing, from shopping lists to academic texts, is creative. In this workshop she will share her experiences, give examples and instructions. In a variety of ways, she will explore with participants approaches to memory and awareness. She shows how we can exercise the muscle of writing and thereby encounter our own lives, our own attitudes.
